I'm not volunteering for the lynch, I'm the vote leader and people ahve commented tht I give of scum vibes so I thought I had to put my name up there.
My subreason for pushing for a consensus on someone was that currentely I'm going to be lynched so I wanted people to consolidate their votes more and vote for 1 or 2 candidates which might still be me but hopefully will be someone else.
Just kicking up some activity really.

Your reasoning on Bard is pretty solid but he's not massively active around the rest of the forum so I don't know how much his posts are general inactivity and how much are sneaky scum intention hiding.

We have a couple of people voting no lynch in the beginning, and we got someone hellbent on bringing them to justice for their gross mis-deeds, Smarty. Most of their defense has been either someone not sure what to do and the other using roleplaying defense, going on about blood or something. Possible sign that people of royal blood are mafians and low-bloods the townies, unsure yet, depends on what people say. Smarty's last post is pushing hard for that lynch, and has positioned himself as one of our man possibilities of lynching, which feels like he is trying to be the nice guy "If you have to kill one of us, I volunteer" and then no one wants to kill him person, so a good defense move there. Doesn't seem warrented though so why did he say that?

Other things I've noticed in the thread is Bard has a total of 2 posts, both of which amount to being confused and not wanting to draw attention. Mr. Bookworm basically just jumped on a bandwagon for lynching Thadius, and commented that we have to lynch someone, might as well be him. Greed has been strangely quiet since his initial post, I imagine either because he just doesn't have input, is confused about the situation, or doesn't wish to draw attention to himself.

Strangely enough, another thing I've seen done in mafian games past is people joke and have fun in the beginning, as you make someone laugh and they will think a better thought about you, as even humor can be a good defense. Fenris had a little fun poking at the tag, though I'm not sure that would amount. Hell I'm guilty of that too, but make of that what you will.

After reading over the thread a couple times, I'm going with this

## Unvote: Ryanderman
## Vote: Bard

I'm trying to weigh up who to change my vote to, Thad, RPG, Smarty and Bard all seem like reasonable choices. Sifright was just a random day one pick.

Anyway,

## Unvote: Sifright
## Vote: Thadius

Let's see what shakes out.

Notable(?): Fenris said that posting in character would point out your role to anyone familiar with Homestuck, and it's inadvisable. Would this be reason to believe that he's scum? Since I can really only think of DD, SS, CD, and the other Midnight Crew person (Maybe the Felt, too?) as a role that would really be obviously scum/obviously set in one role. Any of the other characters, I could see going either way.

Bard The 5th LW · 07-22-2011, 06:56 PM

What else was there to say? I just voted and decided to wait for the results.

Keep in mind that I have stated repeatedly that I am wholly unfamiliar with Homes and the sticking thereof.

Well, I have no idea then.

I actually thought that I was really clever for that realization.

He's clearly a closet reader.

Probably even ships.

Mr.Bookworm · 07-23-2011, 04:33 PM

So, day ends in 5 hours. We really need a lynch. If the majority is leaning towards Smarty, lets go with Smarty, and we can always kill Thadius tomorrow if he turns out to be a townie. ##Unvote: Thadius, ##Vote: Smarty. Need 3 more votes for a plurality by my count.

Also, Snake, uh.

1. 'Days' last a default time of 96 hours. I will periodically remind you of the approaching deadline. 'Days' will never last longer. Even if I'm not present, the 'Day' will end 96 hours after it began, and all votes tabulated or posts made after the 'Day' ends will not count.

That part would have been helpful.

Solid Snake · 07-23-2011, 06:52 PM

Psh, Bookworm forgot a rule while reminding me about a rule I forgot, I guess that cancels itself out.

Anyway, a little less than three hours before deadline.

Solid Snake · 07-23-2011, 09:32 PM

...Note to self: Don't end 'Days' on Saturday nights anymore.
